Enjoy birdwatching? Check out my newest site, vbirder.com, where you can “virtually” birdwatch for over 120 different species of North American birds. This is an ESSENTIAL site for science teachers in the eastern United States teaching bird units. Magnificent for class projects! 100% free for all to use and enjoy. Teachers – you can register and challenge your class to spot and identify all possible birds. Perfect for enrichment when kids are finished with other work.

The MrNussbaum.com Space section is one of the largest sections on the website, comprising numerous interactive learning modules, separate sections on stars, the moon, and space travel, as well as phenomena from space, video, interactive activities, games, and much more.

Bring your own solar system to life by creating nine different planets, adding rings, color, and moons, and then launching them into orbit. Watch as your planets orbit the sun. Name them whatever you want and print out your solar system when you are done.

A space quake deep in the solar system has rearranged the planets and Pluto and threatens to destroy everything! The human race depends on you for survival. Use your interplanetary superpowers to arrange the planets in their correct positions from the sun. If you do so correctly, you can earn a certificate featuring one of the eight planets or Pluto. Try for the fastest score possible and collect all nine certificates.
